Lag whenever i cross the Start tiles.
Lag whenever i cross the Start tiles.
Hello! I think it's the first time me posting here, not sure. However, i have a problem and it gets quite irritating now since i've had it for some time.
I lag, like frozen screen for 1-2 secs (not frame drops), when crossing the start line/tiles. Not quite sure if thats the case for the finish line aswell, but might be. I've tried to reinstall/re-download ddnet. It does not happen everytime, it occurs randomly without reason (Oh well, there must be a reason, but not known to me >_>). Does anyone have a clue why this happens? When it happens, i usually get a little lag while playing aswell, not constantly but 1sec frozen screens - not frame drops. It gets really irritating because whenever i play gores or a DDRace map which has kill/freeze tiles at the exact beginning - i usually end up taking at least 5 mins to get past the start line without falling into freeze/kill within that lag. Frustrating, irritating.. Idk. Someone help a troubled soul? :3

Re: Lag whenever i cross the Start tiles.
When you cross the start line a demo recording is started. So if your disk is very slow (or your anti virus software is scanning the file synchronusly), it can take a bit. You can disable demo recording: Settings -> DDNet -> Save the best demo of each race.
On finish line the file is finished and synchronized to the disk, so the same thing can happen.

Oh! Actually never thought about THAT. People kept saying it's something about my network or something. I'll try it later, makes sense to me. No SSD and it's quite old, thank you Deen! You might just have saved me from a head explosion caused by frustration! I'll try and see if it worked.deen wrote: ↑Fri Sep 01, 2017 7:10 pm When you cross the start line a demo recording is started.

Re: Lag whenever i cross the Start tiles.
it used to happen to me when i had too many demos (rather than a bad disk)
if u dont wana disable demos recording u can try cleaning the demos folder and/or moving them to a subfolder
